Cooking Directions

  1. Bring a large pot of water to a boil. Add beans and cook until bright green, 2 to 3 minutes. Transfer to a colander using a slotted spoon; refresh under cold water.
  2. Add potatoes to the boiling water. Cook until tender when pierced with a fork, 8 to 10 minutes. Drain in a colander; refresh under cold water until room temperature.
  3. Toss the green beans and potatoes with crab, celery, radishes and onion in a large bowl.
  4. Whisk garlic, lemon juice, vinegar and mustard in a small bowl; slowly whisk in oil. Whisk in basil, salt and pepper. Discard the garlic; pour the dressing over the salad and toss to coat.

Yield: 6 servings

3. Still Hungry?

Bright lemony dressing graces this summery combination of green beans, snappy radishes, earthy red potatoes and crab. All you need is crunchy bread and a bottle of A to Z Pinot Gris.

Notes:

Tip

To defrost frozen lobster tails or crab legs, let thaw in the refrigerator overnight.

Make Ahead Tip

Cover and refrigerate for up to 1 day.
